I only have a couple hundred miles on the car so far. Work from home and so far just some quick errands and have been REALLY enjoying the car. Wonderful "honeymoon". But today I took the car out on the highway and the honeymoon is OVER. What the heck is the deal with this car slamming on the dang brakes every few miles?!? I'm in Kansas and had a wide open 4 lane highway and there was not a freakin' car within 40 car lengths of me each time (front, side, nothing). And I'm talking throwing me forward SLAMMING on the brakes for absolutely no reason. In just a relatively short drive it scared the crud out of me a half dozen times. First time I thought I'd try the full auto-pilot thing. Blue lights showing, keeping me in my lane and BAMM - about threw me into the steering wheel and scared the crud out of the guy behind me. So I decided NOT to use that anymore and just went with the cruise control part and it did it several more times. Now I see all these posts about "phantom braking". Is this something I have to live with? Umm... NO! This is ridiculous.
Rant over. So is the honeymoon. There's no excuse for this.
